Serve Our Church

There are many ways to serve in our church including many flexible opportunities for individuals, groups and families. We appreciate your support!

Communion Steward(s) Needed!
Volunteer Opportunity – Can you help either 3, 6 or 12 Sundays a year? Horne is in need of more Communion Stewards. They prepare the elements for each of the three services on the first Sunday of each month. Duties include:
  • purchasing loaves of bread and juice (reimbursed)
  • putting them on the altar before each service
  • cleaning them up after each service 
If you can serve Horne in this important task or have additional questions, please contact Sarah Norris, sarah@horneumc.net for more information.

Sound/Media Technicians needed at all worship services!
Media Team at 11 AM runs everything you see on the screen on Sunday mornings.  This is set up in advance by the worship team and is as easy as volunteers clicking a button. Volunteers serve on a rotational basis, and we can work with your availability. The time needed is from 9:30 AM-11:45 AM Sunday mornings. Contact Sarah@horneumc.net if you are interested.
Sound Team at 11 AM that runs the sound for contemporary service and practice on Sunday mornings are needed from 9:30 AM-11:45 AM. You can sign up for a month or specific days. There will be plenty of training, so you will be comfortable with your role.
